Every security incident begins with an ordinary moment: a password reused, MFA left off, an update postponed, or a system setting changed and never checked. These moments can be easy to overlook. They’re also where practical action can prevent a small vulnerability from becoming a bigger risk.

That’s why Piracy Monitor is supporting Fix It or Risk It, a non-commercial, industry-wide public-service campaign from the Trusted Partner Network (TPN), launching at IBC2026.

Piracy Monitor Supporter

Informed by the TPN STAR Report and TPN security alerts, Fix It or Risk It helps organizations recognize everyday moments where security can be compromised and take practical action before small vulnerabilities become bigger problems.

The free online toolkit includes:

  • Best practice guidance
    • Adaptable policy templates
    • Training resources
    • TPN security alerts
    • A free gap analysis
    • Information about grants

You don’t need to fix everything at once. The toolkit helps organizations start with actions that are low cost, high impact and easy to carry out, then build from there. 

Presence at IBC 2026

WIRN: If a security incident happened tomorrow, would your organization be ready?
Terri Davies moderates a discussion with industry security leaders from the Motion Picture Association, Netflix, NBCUniversal and Once Upon a Time Agency. Drawing on lessons from real incidents and findings from the TPN STAR Report, the panel will look at why the same security failures keep recurring and how organizations can turn awareness into action.

By Q3 2026, the number of TPN security alerts was already more than double the total recorded in 2025.

Fix It or Risk It is not a compliance program, certification scheme or sales campaign. It’s a free resource that organizations of any size can use in the way that works best for them.

Recognize the moment. Take the next step. Fix it or Risk it.

[ Note: As a non-commercial industry awareness and best-practices program, Piracy Monitor strongly endorses Fix It or Risk It. ]
